Self-care is NOT Selfish. Think about being on an airplane. What is the one thing you hear EVERY time? Answer: If something were to happen, be SURE to put on your own air mask before helping those around you.
What if instead, when we’re feeling hurt, or sad, we allow our children to see us cry? And when they ask, “Mommy, why are you sad?” You tell them. You let them know that you feel pain too. And by example, you teach them to talk to someone they love and trust when they feel pain, instead of trying to bear it all alone.
Have you ever had one (or a million) of those mornings where you just woke up, but you already feel frustrated, behind, needed, unappreciated and just…GAH? Oh momma, me too. Me too. Then I learned how to create the “miracle morning”.
You were something before you were a mother. Are you still that person today? Or have you lost her in the monotony of mom life and chores and carpooling and errands and diapers and to-do lists? I challenge you, today, and everyday, to do what lights YOUR soul on fire.
This time of year, I’m thinking more about the things I have to be grateful for. And money definitely makes that list. Thanks for the fabulous reminder, my sweet boy.

Let’s give each other grace mommas. Let’s link arms, and lift each other up. We are better together!
Give 100% and expect 0%. Give without expecting anything in return. Because the leading cause of divorce? Unmet expectations.
